For your rear overhang....you will eventually have an issue. We heavily recommend a good, heavy duty roller. Mounted beneath the frame, as close to the rear as is possible....as wide as possible! memtb
I have idea to install 7,000 lbs axle with 10 inch forklift tires. about 7" from rear of RV. With top of the tire recessed (about 3") into floor of rv.
Each tire rated at 2725 lbs.
Axle will be hanging until right before rear would have made contact with ground.
IMO, this wheel needs to be able to swivel. If not, you might rip the tire right off, or worse, making a tight turn. If you notice most trucks which have a pickup axle will raise theirs when entering a jobsite.
